muntana 0 Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 So much talk about working/showing dogs, unbeleivable, I must agree with some of the lads that say "you can't have it both ways" but, you can.............. as a lot of our members do on this site alone, do the job in the field, and, in the show ring in the summer months. I understand the lads who say why is it a working dog show when the majority of them have never seen nothing more than an insect cross their paths?? understandable and yes, I also wonder why.....but in the case of The Cock of the North terrier this dog TRULY is a worker and a well deserved champion.

chartpolski 23,491 Posted September 9, 2008 Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 (edited) Thought it was a working dog show , then saw the results...If you don,t work your dog,s it,s a fecking cheek to show them..try cruffs jmo My bitch, Delta won the rough lurcher bitch class; and she had just got back from a full weeks work down the country, she is also in the lamping competition that is organised on this site, so you should realy get your facts right before going on about "non-workers " !!

Keeps 403 Posted September 9, 2008 Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 Can't understand arguing over what won and what didnt. I went to Wolsingham and thoroughly enjoyed it - met up with a few friends Ive not seen for a while, shows are more of a social occasion than anything to get serious about WONDER IF HALF OF THEM WOULD HAVE GONE HUNTING IN THE SAME CONDITIONS ?????? DUCKWING Not all of them but mine do Quote Link to post Share on other sites
